Prima Tempranillo, 2007 Toro

Oh, Prima- you’re-so-fine-you-blow-my-mind. And no, do not insert a “Hey,” because I am rocking out to some old school SWV, not Tony Basil. Yup, that’s how I roll on Tuesday mornings! My 90′s R&B
playlist simply cannot be beat.

I’ve been looking forward to this one! One of my all time favorite by the glass pours at Cellar on Greene since we opened. I feel like I say that a lot… well, you have to trust me- and yes, it’s okay that I
have a lot of favorites. They’re like my children.

Here it is on my desk at home- I actually drank it over the weekend while I watched the finale of The Pacific on HBO. It’s full name is Bodegas y Vinedos Maurodos Prima, 2007. But it goes by Prima in layman’s terms, or at least in my terms. Are
you ready to be extremely wow’d?? You better be! Because EVERY recent vintage of this wine has scored 90-points or above from Robert Parker!
03, 04, 05, 06, 07 and 08 (which I haven’t had yet, but would love to
get my hands on). The 07 got a 90. Are you ready for the best part?
It costs $19! Yup, you can snag this little guy for under 20 bucks at
Cellar on Greene. Here’s a better look at the label so you can
remember what you’re looking for:
